Modulus of elasticity
Concrete
Static modulus of elasticity does not truly represent the elastic behavior of the
concrete.

Autogenous shrinkage
Drying shrinkage
Simply the shrinkage taken place after the concrete has set and
hardened

Effect of porosity
Abrams law ?
for any given condition of test the strength of well compacted concrete
with good workability depends upon the W/C cement ratio provided that
the mix is workable. He presented his classic law in the form of
S=
larger strength? ?
Durability of concrete
It is the ability to resist weathering action, chemical attack, abrasion or
any other process of deterioration
Durable concrete will retain its original form, quality and serviceability
when exposed to its environment
no material is inherently( naturally ) durable
